Photography Tip: How to Make Them Forget About The Camera

Usually when someone shoots photos, they wait until the end to do the silly outtake shots. My secret is to do them first. This can lighten the mood, loosen up your subjects and make them relax more...all leading to them forgetting about the camera. This also allows you to dial in your settings while they are still playing. This can definitely be a strategy for shooting young kids. Let them play a bit and get familiar with you before you point this big scary lens at them.
